Dear Thomas Nantucket 1 mo 19 1796
The Ship Ann brought two boxes of Glass for thee, wch the Capt said were put onboard by J Hussey, this Glass is put onboard Pinkhams packet.
If thou hast recd any money from David Anthony on WR & S, Acct please to furnish me the Amount.
There were 7 boxes of Spm Candles, recd form Dunkirk left after sending 200 to D Anthony last fall, as they belong half to DeBanques, I want o close the sales & have proposed to Father, his & my taking them, please to consult him about them & send me part of them. I have some for use. I am glad the Ann is fitted, there is a trypot onbd the packet for her, if she has not sailed or to replace one if borrowed but in case it was an old One borrow'd, unless it was of some of our fmaily there ought to be some consideration in the exchange for this new one. I thought there were 4 belonging to her, & at Bedford, please to let em know if the Invo of them was incorrect. Father mentions, P Bunkers Son, being worthless if found so he ought to have veen sent home, we are not to fear offence in such Cases. He was wanted in the Ship he was last in Amariah Gardner, but as they would not give him more than a 90th three Crews he would not go from wch circumstance, I thought him worth what I agreed.
